Cero Magazine Toasts the Season and Our New Visual Identity

Last month, deep in the thick of summer, Cero Magazine gathered our contributors, friends, donors, and community members to commemorate the sweltering season and our latest issue. Celebrants mingled amidst punchy beats by Mona Matsuoka, absorbing our brand new visual identity—designed by our creative directors Graphic Services—while they perused copies of CERO07, anchored by our striking cover subjects Hayley Kiyoko and Joan Smalls. Perched on the eleventh floor of the Times Square EDITION in 701West, revelers enjoyed craft cocktails while embracing a picturesque sunset over the spectacle of Times Square. The crowd was an encapsulation of both Cero’s ethos and the intent of our mission—established and emerging creatives alike shared an evening in support of our ongoing commitment to offer a platform to the next generation of cultural innovators. Immerse yourself in the celebrations with these vibrant shots.
